Through Obedience We… 1. Experience Assurance I John 2:3-4 (ESV)- And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments. Whoever says “I know him” but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him, John 15:8 (ESV)- By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. Our obedience is a result of our relationship not the cause.
2. Express Love Matthew Zamudio, Pastor, Windsor Park Baptist Church, Desoto Tx. July 19, 2020. All scriptures are printed verbatim with translations noted.
I John 2:5 (ESV)-but whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is perfected… John 14:15 (ESV)-If you love me, you will keep my commandments. Our obedience is about our love for Him, not His love for us.
3. Enjoy Intimacy I John 5:13 (ESV)-“I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.”
Review
